Creating Draw Files from Basic Revisited
by Gordon Gilmore

Running this application runs the Basic program !CDraw.!RunImage. When this is run, a Draw file called Test is created in the Currently Selected Directory (CSD) containing examples of text objects and line drawings. Note that the program uses the fonts Paladin and SwissB - if you do not have these fonts, then edit lines 130-150 in the CDraw_Test program. If you don't then the system font will be used instead.

The techniques used to create the Draw file are described in the articles in RISC User 5:5 and 5:6. This version has had a few minor bugs fixed, which are detailed in this month's magazine.
